Matt and I both use the Simple Calendar app on our phones to see upcoming events. And we both commented that our calendars are blank and seemed to be malfunctioning.
But instead, I think the calendar is just saying have a good trip!!!
We’ve been waiting for this week for ages! I don’t think anyone is more excited at this point than Matt, who needs a break from his 6-day a week job. He’s so excited he got up at 5:30 to run so he’d feel nice and limber on the 5+ hour car ride. When I woke up at 6:30 I was surprised to find him not in bed!
I made overnight oats for an easy breakfast for both of us (and used up all of our dairy and fruit!)
1/3 cup milk, greek yogurt, oats, chia seeds, pinch salt, half banana, cinnamon plus local granola and Reginald’s Cashew-Nilla on top!
For those of you not yet to freedom, the weekend is almost here!

I am way jealous of your beach vacation! Enjoy it on my behalf ; )
Just gotta get through today and tomorrow, and then I’m probably headed to the beach too!
I might have to get this app! Enjoy the start of your weekend. I have the usual 2 days left.
I can rarely sleep on the days I’m starting vacation- the excitement is too much to handle
! Hope you guys have some fun car entertainment !
Daily reader here (rare commenter)..but have a wonderful trip you guys!!!!
I am counting down the seconds. I’ve already cleared 45 hours at work and it’s not slowing down. Ugh.
You guys are early risers! Even on a vacation day. That’s discipline!
That’s a nice calendar schedule to have!
Enjoy your R&R!
How excited you both must be! Enjoy your week to the fullest! Nothing like ‘recharging the batteries’! Have fun!
Your overnight oats look delicious. Safe travels!
Enjoy!
Still love that bowl. I should just get it already. Have a weeeeee trip!
Aw that’s great that you guys are getting a chance to get away and relax! I hope you have a great time at the beach. Matt is becoming quite the committed runner!
Relax and enjoy it!
You both deserve it.
Have a safe trip!
Aw that makes me so happy for Matt!! You both definitely deserve the break! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
That is DEFINITELY a nice thing to see- I can’t wait until summer and vacation time!
Have a great trip!
And cashew-nilla? Whoa.
1.5 days of work left for me before my 3.5 day weekend begins! Have a wonderful time at the beach!!!
That is one good looking bowl! I may be inspired to try this overnight oat thing. Cold oats scare me a bit, but it looks too good to not try.
I am so wanting to be at the beach for a few days…that’s all I need, but I really NEED it! Have a safe trip!
Have a great time! You guys definitely deserve it!
Love the oats. Always been the first meal in the morn. for me. My favorite is Oats, blueberries, crushed walnuts and to top it off… 1/2 cup espresso! That’s my morning boost! lol…
Love the site, great pics!
So jealous you are going on vacation!
I hope you have a wonderful time! Enjoy yourself.
WOW! Have a great vacation!
I love “kitchen-sinking” any meal. What I mean by that is throwing in everything but the kitchen sink because you are: 1. getting rid of things 2. Going on Vacation or 3. Find just crumbs in a number bozes or bags of cereal/granola/bread products. I think I probably “kitchen sink” my oats more times than I’m willing to admit lol
Have a safe drive to the beach!!!!
Have a safe and relaxing trip, Kath & Matt!

Can’t wait to see where you are going for beach vacation.
Gorgeous spoon my dear! I am so excited for you…There’s nothing like a long weekend at the beach…and in the sun no less! Enjoy!
Oooooooh have so much fun!!! You’re right, the LONG weekend is almost here
Woot.

We have a half day tomorrow which makes today more manageable! Have a great trip!
Definitely jealous of your beach vacation! I’ll be spending the holiday weekend working my usual midnight shifts…
However, I have plans for a good beach vacation at Labor Day! Hope you both have a relaxing trip!
I’ll be having a nice vicarious vacation via your posts from the beach.
Those overnight oats look awesome! I have been putting pumpkin and cinnamon in my oatmeal. OH SO GOOD. I will have to try doing them overnight!
Enjoy your trip!
I like the Simple Calendar app. Just installed it!
Have a restful and relaxing time at the beach!
love that bowl. apparently i must try chia seeds too, i think i had a dream about them last night. they are everywhere!
I woke up craving overnight oats this morning and was so sad i didn’t have any prepped! Tomorrow….
Have an awesome trip!!! I feel your excitement! My husband and I have a family owned furniture business and we haven’t taken a vacation in over 8 YEARS!!!! He works 6 days a week and I’m only there 3 so it’s not too bad for me…but next week we’re heading to the beach with our 2 little ones and WE.CAN.NOT.WAIT! Enjoy! : )
a break from a 6 day a week job sounds great
